Christian life is not the same as instagram

 

Luís Alberto Alves

“God teaches his servants in the midst of suffering, and delivers them and uses affliction to open their eyes”, Job-36/15. "The Lord does everything for a purpose, even the wicked for the day of punishment", Proverbs-16/4.

Today, millions of Christians believe that the Gospel of Jesus Christ is like Instagram, where people only post videos and photos of happy moments. Everything is party.

The women appear in make-up, brushed hair, provocative clothes, in front of beautiful beaches, full and happy tables. There is no room for sadness, for something to meditate on. Just pleasure.
